By: BWW News Desk Mar. 24, 2010
MadLab Theatre and Gallery recently underwent renovations at their new space at 227 North 3rd st. in Columbus. The doors to the news space were officially opened on March 19, 2010. The new property increased the company's available square footage from 2450 to 3750 which allows the Gallery, Theatre house, scene shop and storage space to be housed under one roof.
Below are photos from the renovations in the space, courtesy of MadLab.
